Odem is a stunning album by Swiss musician Silvio Cadotsch. The album features Cadotsch's unique vocal delivery and his ability to blend jazz, pop, and folk elements into a cohesive whole. The album is a collection of original compositions as well as covers of songs by artists such as Leonard Cohen and Radiohead.
The album opens with the haunting "Black is the Color," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Cadotsch's voice is both soulful and understated, and he uses it to great effect on tracks like "Strange Fruit" and "The Peacocks." The instrumentation on the album is equally impressive, with pianist Michael Wollny and drummer Wolfgang Haffner providing the perfect accompaniment to Cadotsch's vocals.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go," a Bob Dylan cover that Cadotsch has transformed into a beautiful ballad. The song is a perfect showcase for Cadotsch's voice, which is at its most vulnerable and emotional.
